Azdak is on a roll!

lyrics

No more did the lower orders
Tremble in their shoes
At bellows of their betters
At come here and listen, yous.
HIs balances were crooked but they shouted in the streets,
Good good good is Azdak and the measure that he metes!
He took from wealthy Peter to give to penniless Paul.
He sealed illegal judgements with a waxened tear and all.
The ragtag and the bob-tail went crying up and down,
Cheer, cheer, cheer for Azdak, the darling of this town!
To love thy next door neighbor, approach him with an axe.
For goods and saws and sermons are unconvincing facts.
What miracles of preaching a good sharp blade can do.
So, so, so, so Azdak made miracles come true!
